Ozment believes that the Reformation was a continuation of certain aspects of medieval thought as well as a revolt against others. In this book he traces with great clarity and insight the roots of the Reformation in late medieval times and discusses what happened to these philosophical and religious issues amid the social and political developments of the early 1500s.
